Special Educational Needs (SEN)

SEN is the practice of educating students with special educational needs in a way that addresses their individual differences. There is no better environment for this to be reflected than on a SEN school trip providing kinaesthetic learning (learn by doing) plus important visual and sensory experiences. Many of our venues provide excellent facilities and highly trained personnel to support this.

Our workshops are packed full of curriculum and fun! Our aim is to bring the curriculum to life, teaching children about their bodies and how to look after them through hands-on, multi-sensory activities that are accessible for all ages.

We offer our cinemas out for school or group bookings to show current releases, a requested film or space to use as a presentation area. We can source most films whether the visit is a treat or for educational purposes we cater for SEN schools.
